Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Interviews were driven to know the candidate better and their capabilities. They also didn’t waste much time asking students who they were sure not to recruit and conducting reasonably long interviews.

General Tips: Do’s :
1. Start preparing with the start of the summers.
2. Concentrate on your own preparation and not on what others are doing.
3. Keep the preparation time of HR to maximum 20 hours because HR accounts for just 20% weightage in your selection procedure.
4. Have patience.
5. Prepare every point written in the resume such that you are able to speak for at least 3 min on the subject. You might gain bonus points if you are aware of some latest developments or strategic changes in the field.

Don’ts :
1. Never bog down when you are either not shortlisted in the company who have been aiming for or when even after practice you are not getting the correct way.
2. Do not form very large groups for the preparation. Try making the preparation time that you spend with the group as efficient as possible with the least of bulla sessions.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: GD was conducted for shortlisted candidates and candidates were divided into groups of 6 people.There were 3 topics and each topic was discussed for 2 minutes.No specific rules,like each person needs to speak,are to be followed during the GD.Anyone can initiate,intervene,etc. Finally we were asked to link all three topics and this discussion went on for another 2 minutes.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: Only a single round lasting about 40-45 minutes.There were only 4 people in the panel and technical as well as HR questions were asked. First I was asked to go through my own resume, “Introduce/Tell us about yourself?".  E.g.:“Where have you shown leadership qualities?Have you led a
team?Size of team? What new initiatives did you take?”.Core questions starting form basics like “How does an airplane fly?” to specific questions about the different types of engines used in airplanes,their specifications, etc. were asked. HR questions were put up like"What was the most difficult decision in your life?" and grilled on my internship for 15-20 minutes which I did in Transocean. (Another oil field services company).

General Tips: You need to be very good in the basics of your
core courses and if you have done an internship in the oil industry,
you will definitely be grilled on that.Questions will be asked in quick succession.
Skill Tips: Highlight any intern in Oil industry or anything related to that in your resume.Any POR or any sport activity which shows your leadership qualities should me mentioned in your resume.
Skills: Leadership qualities, Athletic, Quick thinking, presence of mind
